I just got done disassembling and reassembling my Springfield Armory A1 , with this video for help, and it was painless without much need for patience. I really, really like the 1911 series 70. The romance began 34 years ago on the range at Yorktown Naval weapons station. I can not figure out why I would need any other hand gun.....EVER! Thanks For The Video!
Amazing! Glad he did this on a GI Mil Spec 1911. No way would I ever try this. It’s enough to field strip my 1911 to clean. Even then I still get a little nervous when trying to set the slide stop lever back in place when I’m finished. Well done.
+MrColt45acp Your welcome, and that would be great! I look forward to seeing them. You definitely have the coolest job ever! John Moses Browning is my hero!
Back in '92, I bought a bag of parts at a gun show. I didn't have any videos like this but I managed to get it together in about an hour. It has an Auto Ordnance frame and the older colt slide with the patent dates on the left side. It always worked well and my brother shoots it now.
Last time I stripped mine down just to replace a trigger that wasn't catching the grip safety, I wanted to bash my face in when it was time to put it all together. This guy is a pro!
I'm convinced you've done this at least once before. Maybe more. Great video. I just used it to reassemble my series 80. Some slight difference thanks to the extra block but I figured it out. Made me want a 70 though.
Thanx very much! You saved me from the shame of bagging my Trophy Match to the gunsmith. Got a EGW mnsprng hsing/mag well from Dillion & figured it would be simple install. Woulda been if I hadn't let the trigger spring get away from me. Your vid gave me what I needed to detail it down (& give it the cleaning that was LONG overdue) & get it back together. I've been able to field strip & reassemble the Garand (in 18 secs at my best) since I was 8, but was remiss in getting equal skill w/the 45.
Got any you could send me that I could build I’ll buy whatever price all my gustore shut down I just turned 19 it was the only one and it’s hard to find them I’ve been looking ever
I have discovered that the hammer and mainspring go back into the receiver really easily if you wait on inserting the grip and thumb safeties. Here's how I do it: 1) Insert the hammer. 2) Holding the receiver with my left hand palm down, over the top, with my thumb holding the hammer forward (and covering the hammer pin, which is prone to falling out), I make sure the hammer strut is swung up out of the grip. 3) Insert the sear spring. 4) Insert the mainspring assembly far enough to cover the bottom of the sear spring and hold it in. 5) Swing the hammer strut down. 6) The tricky part is using gravity to align the hammer strut so that it seats itself in the recess on the top of the plunger as I slide the mainspring assembly up. It's not really too hard. 7) Now insert the retaining pin. 8) Now proceed with the safeties.
I'm glad the video helped you out. Detail stripping the Model 1911 is not that difficult once you do it a few times. It's good to clean and lubricate the inside of the pistol frame and parts occasionally. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
@DRazloga Every magazine lip I've seen is too thick to fit in the screw slot. The slot on the screw varies considerably from pistol to pistol. Some screw slots are too narrow even for the cartridge rim. Thanks for watching.
That's funny. Although I didn't read every comment I am shocked that there were no 1911 purist yelling at you because the sidearm that you just demonstrated is a 1911A1.
Also, the trick to getting the barrel link pin to line up with the holes in the receiver is to hold the slide upside down and insert the barrel. Then insert the recoil spring and plug, but push them all the way forward. Now tilt the slide slightly forward and make sure the barrel link is laying down on the barrel. Still holding it upside down and tipped slightly muzzle-down, slide the receiver onto the slide until it stops. Now just turn the gun right-side-up and the barrel link will be lined up perfectly for you to insert the slide stop.

@MrColt45acp I was going to say something along the lines in the video where you disassembled it wondering how you to get it back together but i figured a hello would suffice.
That is an Argentine contract pistol, before the "Sistema Colt". It was made in Hartford, Connecticut, USA.. it is even roll marked on the slide. It is a real Colt. The Argentine made "colts" have different roll marks. Ones marked "DGFM FMAP" are the only OFFICIALLY licensed Colt copies produced in Argentina. (Many of the other copies were poorly done, and are not anywhere near as collectable.. yet). The real Colt manufactured ones are getting fairly valuable here in the US.
thanks for the video sir i also have one 1911colt but iam not conform about its model and which bore is it when i buy this 1911 from gun dealer its is .380 bore but i think there is change in it because in magazine gunsmith has install a piece of wood in it so .380 cartage can hold still same cavities left because megz more width then .380 cartage magazine can hold long cartage . i love this colt 1911 and i want to keep it original an antique even i find gunsmith has smooth its pits 4 brng
Impressive, with no tools. The best assembly demo I've seen.

Thank you for posting this video. I am new to the world of 1911s and used this video to completely strip and reassemble mine for the first time.
Amazing! Glad he did this on a GI Mil Spec 1911. No way would I ever try this. It’s enough to field strip my 1911 to clean. Even then I still get a little nervous when trying to set the slide stop lever back in place when I’m finished. Well done.
All these years, and this is first time when I see someone disassemble and assemble 1911 without use of any tools.
After about 3 or 4 yrs this is still one of my favorite channels.
+jamesfreud1 Thank you. I hope to have the time to make videos again.
+MrColt45acp Your welcome, and that would be great! I look forward to seeing them. You definitely have the coolest job ever! John Moses Browning is my hero!

I really enjoyed this sir, planning to buy from a gunsmith here who sells 1911 for 120 bucks 😂
Back in '92, I bought a bag of parts at a gun show. I didn't have any videos like this but I managed to get it together in about an hour. It has an Auto Ordnance frame and the older colt slide with the patent dates on the left side. It always worked well and my brother shoots it now.
He did a fantastic job. Most people don't realize how simple the 1911 really is
I really look foward to each new video,I'm new to 1911's you have really helped me understand the history of this grand weapon, Thanks a million!
much love for this guy right now, after hours of trying.
This is great and I'm putting this in my favourites. Thanks for sharing!
Great job sir, you were my instructor today. I really appreciate it!!!

Excellent demo. Looking forward to attempting this. Thank you.

This is the most american comment I've ever seen.
this is a great series on the 1911, thanks.
Excellent Video! Well done and very educational. Now I can finally put my 1911 back together again. Thanks.
Extremely well explained and great shot video. Very helpful
I really like the tip for reassembly the main spring housing with the trigger and its pin!!!! thumbs up!!!!!
YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY! THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
Wow, that was an awesome and amazing work you did
Love these videos. You make it look so easy.
You nailed those grip panels! 😄.......nice job!!

You Sir are the Jedi of 1911`s ...Thank You for the Class....I`ll save this video for sure ..
OUTSTANDING!!!Love my 1911!!!
Looks like you have done this before, jaw dropping,
Great video !
Just like the disassembly video, totally awesome! Thanks.
BRAVO truly an artist at work

This was really good! Do more like this.
I love the way that 1911 looks

Thank you!
Great job on both videos!

Very cool
@DRazloga Every magazine lip I've seen is too thick to fit in the screw slot. The slot on the screw varies considerably from pistol to pistol. Some screw slots are too narrow even for the cartridge rim.
Thanks for watching.

@QDude72 Thanks for suggesting this video.

Very good video, EXCELLENT Pistol made in Argentina when the things was well done, regards from Argentina!

Much appreciated your comment, I have a DGFM FMAP pistol, is godd know that its fairly valuable for there.

And in a pinch, an empty case can substitute for a missing recoil spring cap.
